So I've loved portable apps from time memorial and have valued making my own apps as portable as possible - XCOPY friendly.

Given the context on the last few posts. I've made a simple helper method in C# that can take a simple powershell hashtable and create a PSCustomObject based on it. Here is an example of how you can call it.

Based on the performance testing and work being done by myself , mow , Brandon Shell and others the question has come up what is the quickest way to generate a PSCustomObject, whether in script , on in C#, and how do you even do it in C#?

I've spend a lot of time in the past looking at the performance of PowerShell but have never gotten around to blogging about it.

A good thing is you can achieve the same end result in PowerShell V2 with modules - but that is V2 and a while away from being released, and then even further away from being fully deployed.

Many people recently have asked how to determine programatically what version of PowerShell their script is running in. Well in version two there is a $psversiontable variable, but this sadly isn't in V1. All is not lost though, as you can write a simple function to return a version object for v1. Below is a quick function that I wrote that I have been using for the last year or so.

Finally my main blog is back in Business. I had gotten discouraged with my previous web host and abundant comment spam, and just plain being busy. But now with the help of an updated WordPress, new Host and Windows Live Writer all should be good.
